INTEGRATED NOISE MODEL

The objective of this report is to familiarize the reader with the capabilities and characteristics of the Integrated Noise Model (INM). The INM is a noise-simulation computer-based tool for describing and defining the impact of aircraft noise around an airport. It is useful in assessing actual or predicted airport noise impacts. The INM takes into account all pertinent impact parameters including types and numbers of aircraft operating at the airport, flight tracks, operating procedures, and time of day aircraft operations. The INM will also provide a better understanding of aircraft noise, the need for the INM, and its potential applications.
